Hi,

Could you help me to print a report with >5000 chars/Columns; I need to ask the device (file/notepad/excel...).

I used the Spooling functions:

- in BaaN IV c4 I haven't problems to use the spool.pr.line;

- in LN 6.1 the line is troncated to 550 chars.

Do you know other solutions? Or why the spool.pr.line is fixed to 550 chars?

Many thanks.

Many thanks for your answer, but I need to use the spooling functions:

Example 2
long spooler1, spooler2

spooler1 = spool.open("", "", 1)
spooler2 = spool.open("", "1", 0)

spool.pr.line = "Hello spooler1................................"
spool.id = spooler1
spool.line()
spool.pr.line = "Hello spooler2................................"
spool.id = spooler2
spool.line()

spool.id = spooler1
spool.close() | close spooler 1
spool.id = spooler2
spool.close() | close spooler 2


I can insert more than 5000 chars in the spool.pr.line, but the spool.line() truncates to 550 chars. Could you esplain me why?

Many thanks.

Hi,

In the following documentation it says that the size of spool.pr.line is only 300:

It is a known limitation. You will have to use the workaround that is mentioned in the link above.
